I am just trying to publish my application in Azure as a Web App. I have been facing issue about the connection string. The server just can't identify what the connection string is, as you may see from the error below:
Unhandled Exception: Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication.AzureServiceTokenProviderException: Parameters: Connection String: [No connection string specified], Resource: https://vault.azure.net, Authority: https://login.windows.net/b99992c6-d6c5-4028-99b5-a1f106bb90bc. Exception Message: Tried the following 3 methods to get an access token, but none of them worked.

Below is the appsettings.json:
{
"ConnectionStrings": {
"DefaultConnection": "Data Source=server.database.windows.net;Initial Catalog=synergylearn_db;User ID=userid;Password=password;Connect Timeout=60;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;ApplicationIntent=ReadWrite;MultiSubnetFailover=False;RunAs=App;",
"AzureStorageConnectionString-1": "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=encamina;AccountKey=V0/+NhCGcq1vBCc1wJ5L9V620fi5E0cX0cX4/pbOFzjqBxRapLBmaDt75LQcoX3HBskY/34E0MwGH/OWToryUg==;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net"
},
"AppSettings": {
"Secret": "abc"
},
"Logging": {
"LogLevel": {
"Default": "Warning"
}
},
"AllowedHosts": "*",
"Authentication": {
"Google": {
"ClientId": "xxx",
"ClientSecret": "xx"
}
}
}
And, here is the Startup.cs:
public Startup(IHostingEnvironment env)
{
var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.SetBasePath(env.ContentRootPath)
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: false, reloadOnChange: true)
.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", optional: true)
.AddEnvironmentVariables();
Configuration = builder.Build();
}
public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddCors();
services.AddMvc().SetCompatibilityVersion(CompatibilityVersion.Version_2_2)
.AddJsonOptions(options => {
options.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;
}); ;
// configure strongly typed settings objects
var appSettingsSection = Configuration.GetSection("AppSettings");
services.Configure<AppSettings>(appSettingsSection);
// configure jwt authentication
var appSettings = appSettingsSection.Get<AppSettings>();
var key = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(appSettings.Secret);
services.AddAuthentication(x =>
{
x.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
x.DefaultChallengeScheme = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
});
services.AddDbContext<SynergyDbContext>(
options => options.UseSqlServer(
Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")
//Configuration["ConnectionStrings:DefaultConnection"]
)
);
services.AddTransient<SynergyDbContext>();
If I run it from the local computer, using the same settings, it works fine. But, it does not work on the server. Any ideas?
UPDATE
When, I check from the url https://myapp.scm.azurewebsites.net/env, I see this section:
Connection Strings
LocalSqlServer
ConnectionString = data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated
Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true
ProviderName = System.Data.SqlClient
And, also this section, where the correct connection string is displayed:
SQLCONNSTR_DefaultConnection = Data Source=server.database.windows.net;Initial Catalog=synergylearn_db;User ID=userid;Password=password;Connect Timeout=60;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;ApplicationIntent=ReadWrite;MultiSubnetFailover=False;RunAs=App;
